Rant : Photographers being Targeted

Odd Photographer CampaignSo this has been making the rounds, but it strikes way too close to home for me to not mention.  See, London photographers have been facing increased scrutiny due to the ongoing fears of terrorism. 

Lets face it, this is happening not just in London but everywhere.

Its gone as far as a new ad campaign by the London Metropolitan Police asking people to identify and report “odd” looking photographers.

… ODD photographers?  Do I even need to get into the insanity of this? 

I take photos of odd places.  I enjoy taking photos of abandoned places, or behind the scenes photos.  I sometimes take notes of where I’m shooting for later discussion and contemplation.

*sigh*  I suspect I won’t be long for this world.  I’ll be taking a photo on one of my walkabouts and I’ll be shot in the head for suspicious activity.  -_-;
